A native breadcrumbs display might be a great addition to this.
I mean, show the domain first, and show a subsection that the website provides, so I can click on that to navigate. If I click on the domain name, provide a standard url input field.
Google already does that with search results: http://d.ekin.io/bOdk http://d.ekin.io/bOdk
- jaffathecake 12y agoThat'd be great. But so few URLs are breadcrumbable, in fact, I should fix this on my own site, http://jakearchibald.com/2014/ http://jakearchibald.com/2014/ is a 404.
- eknkc 12y agoUsing URL itself as a source would not work most of the time I guess, or would require assistance from Google servers. In any case, I believe breadcrumbs should be parsed from the page html: https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/185417?hl=en https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/185417?hl=en
- Excavator 12y agoSome years back there was a proposal on one of the Mozilla blogs to use breadcrumbs when a sitemap¹ is available. I think that's a bit more reliable and would solve the 404 issue. 1: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sitemaps http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sitemaps
- TazeTSchnitzel 12y agoHaving comments on the 404 page is a brilliant idea. More websites should do this!
